A crazy trip to Target
 

I was at Target a little bit ago in the underwear section and their was an old guy was leaning against his basket breathing heavy, I thought about minding my own business, but figured I'd walk over and ask him if he was OK. I ask him and he says no and collapses to the floor. Danielle has the Target attendants call 911 and I help him elevate his feet as he starts turning purple, telling me he has already had a quad bypass.

He started making this weird gargling noise while his eyes were closing, so I lifted his head in order to open the air way and then I grabbed his hand and squeezed it and tell him to squeeze mine back as his eyes start closing and he is un responsive, then his eyes open and he keeps squeezing my hands. The paramedics show up and they tell me to move, lol. I hope that he's OK. :(

He's an older gentleman, 66 named William. I'm praying for him.

That is some really scary stuff, sounds like his new heart was acting up.

Hopefully he is ok.

Re: A crazy trip to Target
 

Nice job, bro. Hope he gets better.

Re: A crazy trip to Target
 

Way to assist the gentlemen in need. Most people will pretend they see nothing when another person is in need of medical attention and just walk off. Great job.

Scary indeed. Good for you to help out- a rare thing in this day and age. A quick prayer that he will be ok!

Re: A crazy trip to Target
 

Great job bro for helping out a fellow in need. Funny thing I had a similar thing happen to me at clinical today. I was giving this elderly lady her breakfast this morning when she start having a TIA attack. One of the aids stated that she was just sleeping. After trying to wake her I notice that she was yawning and had drool coming from her mouth. I stated this wasn't normal and notified the head nurse. We then rush her to her room and applied oxygen to her before calling 911. She was doing fine when I left for the day.

That is a scary situation. A similar thing happened to me back in the day when I worked at CVS. An old lady who worked there collapsed and I was the only one who knew anything to help her. I was 17 at the time. She survived!

Good job Darrell :tu I will be praying

Do you think I named myself that? Talk to the BABOTL, they gave me that name, I think. :r

Re: A crazy trip to Target
 

Way to go, Darrell!! More people should be like you. You did everything right and you should feel good about that, my friend.
There's is a time to be "Mean" and there's a time to be a good samaritan...today, you were the latter. :tu

To steal a quote from Van Halen..."Big Bad Darrell is Sweet Darrel now!!!"

Re: A crazy trip to Target
 

Nice work. I hope he comes out ok.

Re: A crazy trip to Target
 

Glad you were able to help out, but I am very concerned about your reputation now. You are gonna have to do something really mean to compensate :ss

Re: A crazy trip to Target
 

Good job Darrell.... You should call the hospital and see how he is doing. :tu

Re: A crazy trip to Target
 

Wow, very scary. I hope the old boy is OK. Good on you for stepping forward to help out. :tu

Re: A crazy trip to Target
 

Yeah, I had thought about that except that I don't know his last name and hospitals are funky about telling stuff to people who are not family.

Re: A crazy trip to Target
 

Nice job, Darrell!
